Best Snickerdoodles Recipe – A Must-Try! 😍

Ingredients:

• 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup butter, softened (I prefer using salted butter)
• 2 cups white sugar, divided
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and 1 ½ cups of the white sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 3 minutes.
4. Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
5. Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing just until combined.
6. Prepare Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the remaining ½ cup of sugar with the 2 teaspoons of cinnamon.
7. Form Cookies: Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, form dough balls. Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until well coated.
8. Bake: Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are soft and puffy.
9. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
